Although still somewhat incomplete, the Harvard-Smithsonian Digital VideoLibrary is now available for preview and user feedback. For this project,video segments are being linked to benchmarks, state standards, and otherinstructional criteria. The Strand Map Service (SMS), which uses maps basedon the Project 2061 Atlas of Science Literacy, is a new feature that letsyou use interactive strand maps as the interface for accessing resources.Many of the boxes (=learning goals) are still unlinked, but if you download and install the suggested plug-in (instructions aresupplied on the web site), you will find many videos associated with the Atlas. The long-term goal is to populate the boxes sothat various types of curriculum resources such as phenomena andrepresentations, research on commonly held student ideas, benchmarkclarifications, and assessment items are available to the end-user. The SMScan be embedded into any digital library that wishes to organize itsresources around K-12 benchmarks. The developers are interested to get yourfeedback!

This videopaper by the Math Forum's Bridging Research and Practice Group (BRAP) of teacher practitioners and Math Forum Staff opens a conversation around the use of discourse as a basis for encouraging students' mathematical thinking and supporting teachers' professional growth. Reflecting an attempt to integrate practice and research, it reports on findings culled from discussions of research articles and chapters, classroom practice, and videotapes of classroom teaching, noting links between these findings and research into student learning and instruction. Video clips from the teachers' classrooms illustrate the interventions discussed; a challenge problem and lessons for various levels are detailed; corresponding student predictions are presented; and readers' reactions and input are encouraged throughout.

This is an interactive video-based case study of four days of math instruction in a Nashville middle school targeted at a pre-service math education audience. There are three hours of video of classroom interaction, and an additional hour of teacher anticipations and reflections. All video has been transcribed and the transcription is synchronized with the video, so the user may search the transcription and access the corresponding video. Users may add bookmarks and annotations and save them to a file. The program includes lesson plans, homework assignments, and all student work was scanned and included as supplementary pdf documents. There is an Interactive Issues Matrix of pedagogical issues with links to their corresponding examples in the video. Our long term goal is to create a template with which instructors may create their own interactive video-based case studies and share them with their peers. (Note: users of the web version should have a fast connection. The video comprises more than 400 Mb in total. Individual video file sizes range from 10 Mb to 120 Mb.)

The Michigan Education through Learning Objects (MELO) project is a cross-disciplinary collaborative effort that has worked over the past three years to facilitate the integration of curriculum-based sequences of online learning objects (LOs) that complement classroom pedagogy in large enrollment gateway courses. MELO's goal is to enhance student learning, engagement, and persistence in college through the use of these learning objects. The materials represented in this collection are from the third year (MELO 3D) of the project. This award-winning project takes a unique approach to overcoming barriers to technology-enriched instruction by involving students (undergraduate and graduate) in addition to select faculty and staff from across different disciplines as key collaborators. By training select students and faculty to find, evaluate, adapt, create, and integrate LOs, the project facilitates the incorporation of high quality interdisciplinary and discipline-specific LOs into the curricula.The Open.Michigan collection serves as a central repository for materials created in association with the Michigan Education through Learning Objects project. The Materials tab contains training materials from the start of the projects, learning objects, survey instruments and conference abstracts from the project.
